Guild Wars 2

I’ve done some searching and can’t find anything answering the problem they have so I thought I would bring it up again. Squeaky wheel gets the grease and all that.

Just wondering where Anet is at on this issue. It seems to have been a problem for a bit now. I have been pimping the game and have gotten some on board and then this morning a friend tells me he bought the game, but can’t get on my server because it’s full.
Now I want to point out that it wasn’t just my server, he said it was all but maybe 4or5. Before anyone says anything to the effect of peak hours or such, he tried this at 6:30AM CST.

If there is an answer and I couldn’t find it please point it out.

Thanks

There is no answer at the moment, though with the constant Full server ‘issue’ they need to implement a friend invite system or something to get people together on a server.

I believe you can friend somebody on the login screen, set it up so if you mutually friend each other then you can invite said friend to your server bypassing the full lockout – add a limit of X friends (or X friends per month) to stop abuse and should fix 90% of the problems.

Well, some servers legitimately do have a lot more players than others, so they’re trying to get them to go to the less crowded servers.

From what I understand, the number of people logged into the server has to be below a specific threshold for you to be able to access the server for transferring. However, with the amount of people that went to many top servers for WvW, the more that transfer, the less of a time window there is when the server is not full. At any time.

Best you can do for now is join a different server and join your friends in dungeons and overflow maps, since those are cross-server.

There were 9 open servers at noon today.

Hopefully one of the most hyped features pre-launch (guesting) will be implemented soon. Play with your friends anywhere!

You’re friend is playing it wrong OP

My GF just installed the game and we want to play together. But since my server (Fort aspenwood) is ALWAYS FULL…. She cannot join me. So now what? She doesn’t want to have to pay for a transfer. So I guess we just have to move on to another game…

Wait until the morning around 6:00-11:00 am and most servers arn’t full.

She can start on another server and then attempt to transfer until she can actually join the server you’re on. At the moment, transfers are free.
